		 This comprehensive program addresses the whole horse from
         the hoof to the mind in an eight week intensive with lots of hands on learning.
         The  360-hour curriculum is an integrated program based in classical
         western and eastern principles of holistic health care and maintenance for
         horses. The basis of the work is to effect real changes by learning to see,
         influence and release fluid movement thereby promoting health and optimizing
         the athletic potential inherent in each horse.

         
Class sizes are limited so each student will have time
         for individualized attention and time to get real world experience with 
		 a variety of horses. You'll study the art of reading
           a horse to gain the trust of horses, draw and hold their attention and
		   to soften and supple them through proven horse handling methods.
           A unique class in equine movement will be an in-depth study beginning
           with what natural, relaxed and free expressive movement looks like
           and then learning to see where movement is hindered and must be released.
           Hoof care will also be considered as the foundation of soundness and
         will cover what to look for in a good trim, hoof anatomy and pathologies.

         

		 The program includes fifty hours of business so that when
         you are finished you have the tools needed to begin and grow your own successful
         equine massage business. Not just theories, work will generate your own
         self-development, business and marketing plans so that you'll hit the ground
         running.
